| spyroboy | xbansheex, I was rwriting that proggy in my brain on the way hme from school today. damn simple. |

| Jmax- | it's well worth it. LWP is probably 10x that anyways especially with form submissions |
| pasteling | "arpwatch" at 74.194.35.17 pasted "simple perl" (5 lines, 132B) at http://sial.org/pbot/23294 |
| Jmax- | alternatively, you could just copy the headers and use LWP::UserAgent |
| arpwatch | can someone tell me why that won't work? http://sial.org/pbot/23294 |
| th3man | what's the best way to fill out forms in perl? |

| Jmax- | th3man: what sort of forms? web forms? |
| fedx | was that a strange question or something? |
| th3man | Jmax-: yes web forms |
| xbansheex | spyroboy, was it pure perl, or did it use wget/lynx/other web getting thingy? |
| Jmax- | th3man: does it *require* javascript? |
| spyroboy | xbansheex, php :/ |
| Jmax- | th3man: if not, i recommend WWW::Mechanize, it's the easiest solution |
| th3man | Jmax-: ahh, i did come across that |
| spyroboy | xbansheex, could do it in bash though |
| th3man | Jmax-: thanks, I'll look more into it :) |
| Jmax- | np :) |
